Dead by Daylight

 So, I might be taking some time to write the blogs about movies that are so bad that they're good, but I wanted to take a detour to present a masterpiece of a game. Dead by Daylight. 

    Every new year I have the tradition of buying two new games (they have a Christmas discount) that I will be playing all year long. It's great because it avoids me to buy too many games throughout the year and I end up having a super cool library in my Steam account in the long term. I also share them with my brother so this is literally me at the beginning of 2026: 

This year I bought Resident Evil 2 remake and Dead by Daylight. 

I've honestly been waiting to play another RE game because the 4th one is just so nostalgic to me. It was 100% worth it since I love horror games. 

And while I was searching for other games and crying at the prices that ranged from "no way this is this cheap" to "how is this not cheaper?!" I stumbled upon Dead by Daylight. Of this game little did I knew, but I was yet to unfold a hidden gem. Only heard of them due to the Stranger Things collab they did back in 2021 and the new one. After some fine and thorough research I decided I needed to play this amazing game. 

                What is Dead by Daylight? 

This is a multiplayer horror game, where team work makes the dream work. 4 survivors will have to help each other escape from an island while being chased by a killer. To do so, they have to fix five generators, that will power an exit door, scattered all over the map. Meanwhile, the killer has to chase and kill them. One hit will make them get in the "hurt state" which makes them move slower, the next hit knocks them to the ground. So the killer can pick them up and hang them in one of the many hangers that are in the map so that they can be sacrificed to the Entity. A mysterious creature that will kill the survivors. Each survivor can get hooked and saved only twice, the third time they will be directly murdered. 

What makes this game fun and worthy of your time? 

First of all, each play is different. Depending on whether you are the killer or a survivor and of the level of the gamers around you. Even depending on the map, and they sure have some crazy maps. The Silent Hill one is insane, I always get lost!

(this map)

Next, there is a vast catalogue of survivors and killers with different perks and actions. Depending on what they do, you have to adapt a deferent strategy. For instance, the killer I hate, despise more than anyone else, is the one from the Tokyo Ghoul collab. He has tentacles that can hold you and catch you from far distances. Even though he is considered one of the worst killers, I really struggle with him. 

(here is me getting murdered by Kaneki from the Tokyo Ghoul collab)

Which is another peculiar thing about this game, they have pretty cool collabs that keep the game alive. I was afraid the server would be dead when I bought it, but with all the activities they do, there is a lot a players actively playing it (me included now!!). 

Going back to strategies, this is another thing that might appeal your attention. Killers play in first-person and thus have a restrained perspective whereas the survivors play in third-person and are more aware of their surroundings. This make a huge change in the game, as the beginning of the game is as pro-survivor as possible but this will change as the game goes on. 

Another important gaming strategy is team work, because some people are nasty enough to never help and go on with their life!! Which is very enraging but well that's it. You also have the classic "tea-bagging" gamers that won't doubt to humiliate the killers if possible. So, all things considered, you still rely on the people you're playing with or against to enjoy the game. 

Also, I forgot, but there is a score at the end, so if you're competitive and want to smash people this can also attract you in the game!! 

Here you can see a pretty mediocre play by me! (Lara Croft!!) 

This is very biased, but I bought it with the Tomb Raider 2013 extension, the 2013 Lara Croft has to be one of the most legendary characters for me growing up, and even though the critics about her were mixed (might even do an article on the decline of the trilogy), I got her only for the skin. I wouldn't recommend it, since her perks are not the best in the game, but what can I say? She looks so so cute!!!

I could go on and on about all the perks but honestly I wouldn't be doing them justice as I'm still a big amateur in this game and don't know how to properly play! But seriously, you should check out one of the many gameplays out there, this game is really difficult!

In conclusion, horror games are my comfort zone and whenever I can find myself shaking and screaming every five seconds with my lungs filled of anxiety, I recommend them (even if I'm aware they are way scarier games than RE).  

I'm planning on buying Dead Space and the classic Silent Hill next year, but drop any recommendations, I'm all ears!! 

Hope you enjoyed this article! See ya at the bingo!! >:b 

Sonic The Hedgehog Is So Back

 I absolutely adore Sonic the hedgehog, which will come as no surprise to anyone in my class. I've made it abundantly clear. The blue blur and his colorful pals have been with me pretty much as far as I can remember, so today I want to talk about what Sonic is, why I love him so much, and also the bright future ahead for the franchise (I'm so excited for what's next)

I dare you to try and find every snealy references I place in this article (might even make an article on these, since there's so many XD) 

First of all, what is Sonic the hedgehog? 

1-SONIC:ORIGINS 

the fastest thing alive was created in 1991 by Hirokazu Yasuhara, Naoto Ohshima, and the most famous, Yuji Naka (sometimes refered to as Yu2 by fans, I'll explain why later). These three were tasked to create for SEGA (SErvice GAmes) a mascot who would rival with Nintendo's very popular Mario. The main goal of SEGA was to showcase the speed of their consol, the Mega Drive (aka SEGA Genesis) compared to Nintendo's hardware, so they quickly knew they wanted a fast character. The original concept was a Rabbit, which remains unnamed to this day, but they decided at the last minute a hedgehog would look more dynamic with it's sharp quills. "But why is Sonic blue?" I hear literally none of you asking! Well, simply, because SEGA's logo is blue! And now I don't hear you asking "But then, why isn't it the same shade of blue as the logo?". The answer is simple once more: Sonic was simply not visible enough against the blue sky of the game, so they made him darker. Fun fact, Sonic's name was originally Harinezumi, or Mr. Needlemouse in english.

In the next decades, Sonic went through major changes, like switching to 3D, and a change in design. He also gained more allies and foes with each game, each more lively and colorful as the next. His first 3D game (if we ignore Sonic 3D blast, which we will) was Sonic Adventure in 1998. This game brought more to Sonic that just 3D:it brought Yuji Uekawa (the second Yuji which gave Yu2), and with him a new artstyle which would change the franchise forever:the well named Uekawa Sonic. This design has so much personality and swagger, it stayed until modern days (even though it's been slightly updated), and the name is still deeply respected in the community

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Part two, why I love Sonic

2-Vivid sounds and hybrid colors
Sonic has a lot of reasons to be likeable. So many I don't even know where to begin.
Let's begin with the general esthetic and atmosphere of the games (wow I'm more organised on this than on Ms Choffrut's essays, I should get my priorities straight if I wanna stay in this section)

Sonic in general is quite a 'feel good' franchise. It's all about freedom and friends, facing whatever comes with a smile and maybe a couple pals. This is a part that's always appealed to me, along with the bright colors of the cast and evironments. Some places are colorful, pretty, or dazzling, while others are straight up gorgeous

Ouranos Island, Sonic Frontiers (2022) ↓

 

 

 


fffffff

   

 











































Another part that pushes further into this 'feel good' vibe is the music. One thing that's always been consistent throught the ups and downs are the soundtracks accompanying the games. I always love listening to these upbeat and fast paced songs, and they are so varied, you're guaranted to like at least one
Here is a quick top ten instrumental tracks for those curious enough to give it a listen
 

10-Arsenal Pyramid (Sonic Forces)

honorable mention:Arsenal Pyramid - interior
9-Sunset Heights (Sonic Forces)

honorable mention(last one I promise):Gate:Sunset Heights (Shadow Generations)

8-Aquatic Base -Level 2- (Sonic The Hedgehog 2006)
7-Second Wind - Sonic Mvt. (Sonic Frontiers:Final Horizon)
6-Last Judgement (Sonic Forces)
5-That's The Way I Like It... for Metal Harbor (Sonic Adventure 2)
4-Flame Core -Volcano- (Sonic The Hedgehog 2006)
3-End of The World (Sonic The Hedgehog 2006)
2-Mortar Canyon (Sonic Forces)
1 -Palmtree Panic "B" mix (Sonic CD)

But Sonic doesn't resonate with me only with the sheer joy of its speed, heartfelt moments of kinship, and blissful endings
What all we Sonic fans adore above all
Is
The

AURA FARMING

the 'cool' factor has always been present in Sonic games, at least ever since Sonic went super against Perfect Chaos in Sonic Adventure and the absolute banger Open Your Heart started playing. But it's never been more present than it is now, and especially since Sonic Frontiers, where each Island had a boss worthy of being any game's final foe, each one more gigantic than the last, but each destroyed the same in an epic clash against Super Sonic accompanied by the glaring vocals of Kellin Quinn roaring in the background... Absolute cinema. These bosses were playable AMVs.

 

Super Sonic throwing with his (gloved) bare hands a literal titan wyvern robot into a mountain, if that's not aura 
farming what is  

 

 

Sonic really has a way with looking cool.

 

  To wrap this up, I'd like to talk about Sonic in a more personal way: I know Sonic isn't exactly popular (although that is changing in the recent years, yahoo), but it's always been something I've loved. And to be honest, that's gotten me a lot of mockeries... But I found in Sonic a second family, among the mass of fans. This is probably the warmest community of fans I've ever seen, and some of the most talented people, thousands of artists, VAs, gamedesigners, modders... And before you start listing other communities that are more of a family than Sonic, note this: the main reason everyone gets along so well and are so nice to one another is because we basically all went through the same thing growing up as Sonic nerds, and we all know what it feels like being left out for being quirky (also, a little fact: a great portion of Sonic fans are autistic, which must've also been hard to live growing up.. These people say the main reason why they love Sonic is the heartwarming community, and the message of freedom and "be who you are" from the entire franchise. some of you may find this corny but I entirely agree with it) 

The future of Sonic is looking bright, with Sonic the movie 4 in 2027, other Sonic Cinematic Universe projects rumored for the next years, support planned on Sonic Racing Crossworlds for the next couple of years, and probably new games on the horizon for the 35th anniversary of the franchise

Sonic has been getting much more love in the recent years, and nothing could make me happier than sharing that love with you 

Overall, Sonic is amazing in so many ways, most that you didn't even think of, and I hope that those who read this article to this point will understand Sonic and me better than before, and perhaps even want to play some! Say so in the comments if that's the case please so I can stalk you and loan you my Sonics (whatever consoles you have, it'll work, I have games for PS2, PS3, Switch (1/2), Wii...)

Thank you so much for reading this! I'd like to close it off with some of my favorite Sonic quotes (because I can't possibly choose just one)

“What you see is what you get! Just a guy who loves adventure! I’m Sonic the Hedgehog!” – Sonic Adventure 2

“I’m not fast because I run. I run because I’m fast!” – Sonic Frontiers

“I don’t need anyone to tell me who I am.” – Sonic Prime

 “A hero never runs from danger. He runs toward it.” – Sonic the Hedgehog

 “The journey matters more than the destination.” – Sonic Frontiers

 "I’m wet, I’m cold, there’s a fish on my head, and I realize that I can’t do this on my own." - Sonic Movie 

 "I'm Sonic the Hedgehog, and I have no master, except for the wind that blows free" - Sonic And The Black Knight 

ps I have no idea why the text went berserk at the end

 

 

 

 

 

Just Dance!

Hii! 

    I'm back again with another game article! If you haven't guessed by the title I'll be talking about the game franchise Just Dance. First released in 2009 on the Wii, this game series is still active until today as they released the new 2026 version. The games are available on many platforms, enough for you to at least own one (from Wii, PS3-PS5, Xbox, iOS, Android, Nintendo and even Microsoft). They release a new one each year adding more and more songs, either by popularity or by the year. It's a game I often find myself playing with friends late at night, always competitive while still remaining fun. 

    Compared to a lot of games where you stay behind your screen and play using the keyboard or controller this one requires you to... DANCE ! You choose the song you wanna play based on your liking or difficulty or if you play in the co-op version with players from all around the world! There's really songs from all years and all genres so you'll definitively find one you will enjoy. The mechanics in themselves are quite easy and doesn't require much game knowledge so I would say it's quite beginner friendly however depending on your stamina you'll get tired quicker or not!! (It also depends on which song difficulty you choose as some are made to be hard or cardio based). You also choose which dancer you will follow depending on the amount of dancers for the song. You will have to redo the dance movement shown on screen at the same time as the dancer: 

 (I've put you the iconic Rasputin)

    You have the lyrics on the bottom left corner for you fellow singers, but more importantly you actually have the dance move on the bottom right (however a lot of people actually prefer to mimic the dancer as it is easier for them..... I'm not one of them sorry I follow the little symbols.... ). You will get points depending on how well you do the move and there's also special moves that are golden that give you points! This all increase the bar on the left who represents your final score: 1,2,3,4 or 5 stars and if your score is higher than 10000, which is for 5 stars, you will get Superstar for 11000 and Megastar for 12000! So the game can be quite competitive in order to reach the higher score. 

    You can unlock backgrounds and avatars after completing some songs to a certain level to customize you profile but it's not very important.  

    Throughout the years the graphics really improved and they've added a lot of songs (you can find the song lists online if you're interest I won't list them). Like in terms of costumes color and even the game design :

Just Dance 1: 

 Just Dance 2:

 

Just Dance 3 (You can already notice the changes):

 

Just Dance 2014: 

                  

Just Dance 2026 (They now have fully visible faces and detailed costumes):

 

    They also decided midway to introduce lore in their games, if you are interested I recommend you checking out some videos on YouTube such as Just dance icebergs or lore videos. 

 

     Hope you've enjoyed this article and I hope you'll check the game and have a fun night dancing!! 

See you later for the next game... (Spoiler it's an iconic and nostalgic Wii game......)

MY TOP FIVE FAVORITE VIDEO-GAMES

 Hello, Charlie.

Today I want to talk about my top five video-games ever. And this won't be easy, because gosh are all of these amazing... But I'll try my best to narrow it down and put them in order
Also, if you feel there was a game I should've put instead of another, remember I said these are my top five favorite games, not my top five of best games.

 without further ado, let's get into it

#5: Marvel's Spider-Man 2 

 

I haven't finished this game yet, because it's a PS5 exclusive and I do not own one, but I've thoroughly played it, and it is absolutely amazing. The grapics are superb, the animations smooth and detailed, and New-York has never felt so dense, the map absolutely huge. It's a true pleasure to swing through it as either Peter Parker or Miles Morales, both having their own distinct abilities, Peter having the symbiot suit and Miles having his electric powers. The story is amazing, fleshed-out and epic, better than all spider-man movie combined (unpopular opinion, don't roast me in the comments). One aspect that has been criticized a lot by fans is the RNG (random number generator) system, making for repetitive fighting occuring in the city after completing the main story, but I didn't play it long enough for it to be an actual problem

All in all a truly beautiful game, including a vast array of suits to pick from to make your journey as a hero all the more unique!

 

Although, it is a bit pricy, and you have to own a PS5, so not a cheap experience...

 

 

#4: Hollow Knight:Silksong

 I've already talked about this one thoroughly in my previous article, so I won't get into it much, you'll have to read it ;)
It's a platformer where you play as Hornet, a popular character from the prequel Hollow Knight, in a mysterious and foreign land...

I love this game, the art, the music, the gameplay, what's not to like? This one however is on all modern software and is very cheap so go play it NOW 

 

This is where it gets complicated... This top 3 was really hard, and the order isn't always the same depending on when you ask me, but let's go with that

#3: The Legend Of Zelda:Breath Of The Wild (commonly known as Botw)

 This game doesn't need introduction anymore. It is one of the best selling game ever. As of March 2025, it sold 34.51 million copies worldwide. It was released in early 2017 on the Wii U before being ported to the Switch and recently getting an upgrade in graphic quality and framerate on the Switch 2.
This is an open world adventure game, where the protagonist, Zeld- I mean, Link, explores the land of Hyrule 100 years after a disaster than wrecked everything in its path. Our hero awakens on the Great Plateau, in the center of Hyrule, the perfect playground for newcomers before you can finally go down into the main land, and from there, you are free to complete the main quest, side quests, or explore, all in any way you want. The story requires you visit four locations on the map before heading for the castle, but the game lets you do it all in the order you want, skipping the four waypoints altogether if you feel brave enough. Even after finishing the game, there is a lot to do. I've fnished the game three times, and once in extreme mode, and it's always just as fun as the first time. Even on my first save I keep playing, because there are still hundreds of things to do, places to discover, people to meet, quests to complete, and Koroks to find (these little "§ç!ù%/=<) Anyway, a game I strongly recommend, playable on Wii U, Switch and Switch 2. You can also play the sequel, Tears Of The Kingdom, on Switch and Switch 2, which would've deserved a spot in this list but I have to keep this short.

#2: Sonic Frontiers

Finally, a Sonic game
You were probably worried I had forgotten I was a Sonic fan 

This game is actually quite similar to Botw. It is Sonic's first open-zone game. You play as the blue blur, rushing at top speed through five different islands (actually it's just three different island, we know what you did Sonic Team), collecting the Chaos Emeralds and fighting Titans to save your friends, and the world. The first island is Kronos, a lush and green place where you fist wake up to discover the game, next is the sand-scarred Ares and last is the sky-high volcano above the clouds, Chaos. We then go back to Kronos, on another part unexplorable before called Rhea and then to the last island, Ouranos (which is again just Kronos, we know what you did, Sonic Team). This game was infinitely fun, thrilling to explore, packed with fun puzzles (except when you reach Chaos, why so many 2D sections?? We know what you did, Sonic Team), the interactions between the characters are more heartfelt and realistic than before, and Roger Craig Smith's Sonic has never sounded better.. His voice is deeper, closer to his real voice, and it makes Sonic so much better wow it's so good.
The gameplay is solid, with a skilltree you unlock through completing puzzles and fighting enemies, unlocking the Chaos Emeralds is done by running through the Cyberspace levels spread across the islands, unlockable by defeating Guardians to obtain Gears, etc. It's an engaging game and great on the first playthrough. I say first because it is unlikely non-Sonic fan will appreciate it enough to continue playing it. Even in the Sonic community, there's recently been heavy controversy surrounding it, people changing their minds on it. But, unlike Silksong and Spider-man 2 which I've not finished, I have played this game for over 130 hours since it came out in 2022, and I've completed it at 100%, so I can safely say it's truly an amazing game. I won't get into it too much, but it's also gotten three free DLCs, saving most complaints about the game, most of all being the last one, with Ouranos getting fixed, with three new playable characters and a new fnal boss. That was epic. 

The revisited Final Boss of Sonic Frontiers:Final Horizon

 

Last thing on this game before Number one; the music is incredible. Each island has a main theme, in seven movements moving at your pace when you progress. My favorite is Kronos, its theme is amazing. The Boss themes are also incredible, pumping punk-rock in your ears
as you pound down a robotic titan while Kellin Quinn screams for you're "What you get when the stars collide" and for you to "Break through it all"... I get chills. The lyrics are so epic, people are quoting them in their Steam reviews

Play it, and you'll Wake the beast inside

 

 100% 😎↑

 

 

#1: Sonic The Hedgehog 2006

This one is very controversial (I can already hear Damien saying HELL NAAHHH)

But yes, the infamous Sonic 06 is one of my favorite games ever.

This game from 2006 (who knew) was supposed to be a turning point for the franchise, the new standard, so much so its name is just Sonic The Hedgehog, no subtitle. Sadly, it was incredibly rushed so it could release on the 15th birthday of the franchise, so what we got was a game with infinite potential, but that felt more like an extended beta version instead of a full release. Endless loading times ranging anywhere from 20 seconds to a minute, instant frame drop if you even think of pressing the jump button, sending you in slow-mo purgatory if there is over two enemies on screen at the same time, poor graphical quality, slow characters, cringy motion-capture cutscenes, the worst character in the whole franchise (Princess Elise), Silver's Dusty Desert causing infertility to an entire generation, and the list goes on. So why is this my favorite game, if it's so flawed? Well, for two main reasons: I can see the potential, and it outweighs the negative. Second of all, all these issues ended up being more fun than actual problems (except Silver's Dusty Desert, that thing took 30 minutes to clear and I've not been the same ever since... I can still hear the screams). This game is one of the most hilarious games I'v ever played, and it's not even intentional! It gave us classics like Sonic saying "That tornado's carrying a car!" when the tornado behind him is carrying way more than one car, Shadow's legenderay "Let's... get... MOVING!!", or Silver's obnoxious "It's no use!".
But more gameplay-wise, the levels are really good. If you just ignore what I listed up there, this is probably the best level design I've ever seen. The game has three distinct stories to follow, each filling every hole the others could have had. They are: Sonic's Campaign, where you play as Sonic and squad, for instance Knuckles and Tails, then Shadow's Campaign, where you play as Shadow, Rouge, Omega... and Silver's Campaign, where you play as Silver and Blaze. Each of these characters can explore the same levels, which might make you think "well it's just an excuse to reuse every level" except every character plays differently, so no level is actually the same. For instance, Sonic's Dusty Desert is kinda fun, whereas Silver's Dusty Desert is just... 

When you beat all campaigns, you unlock The Final Story, where all characters team up to find the Chaos Emeralds so Sonic, Shadow and Silver can take on the final boss: Solaris.

Another thing that this game introduced was the villain Mephiles, one of my favorite villains ever, he's just so badass 

I have personally finished Sonic 06 on the PS3 and it is quite the achievement, because it's already neigh unplayable as it is, but the PS3 version is even worse.. You know how many words I wrote so far? That's probably how many times I've died in 06.

Fortunately for all who would like to try, Chaos X and a small team of dedicated fans have took it upon themselves to remake the game for PC and give it the glory it deserves. Soon will release the final big update of Project 06 (aka P06), adding the final story and Boss fights.

And the music as always is truly amazing, I recommend you listen to the OST

Also fun fact, the voice actor for Sonic 06 was Jason Griffith, and I can do a perfect impression of his voice. Come see me if you're interested :D

I think that's all I had to say, thank you for reading so far. Have a good day, and as always, see you in the next one 

Alright.






See ya

EPIC:The Musical

Hi Charlie!

I was looking around the blogs and found out there wasn't one about EPIC

So here I am🙃

“EPIC: The Musical” is a nine-part series of album musicals (referred to as "sagas")  , inspired by the Homer's classic "The Odyssey".

Written and produced in their entirety by the Puerto Rican actor and singer-songwriter Jorge Rivera-Herranseach saga ,named after a specific part of the journey, (Troy, Cyclops, Ocean, Circe, Underworld, Thunder, Wisdom, Vengeance and Ithaca) draws listeners into the timeless tale of Odysseus’ journey by the song writing and instrumental of Jorge, alongside the beautiful voice of the other member of the cast.

All saga are different and the work put in it is obvious as some sagas contain more humor and upbeat conversation resulting in lighter sounds, while others feel mysterious or melancholic created by a darker tone in the instruments accompanying perfectly the part of the story it tells.

As people listen to EPIC; it is obvious that each saga builds off the previous, culminating into a beautiful progression of “The Odyssey.”

I know that greek mythology isn't everyone's thing but by friends experience River-Herrans’ simple, yet imaginative, storytelling helps clearly understand the story whiteout being lost because of reference not understood or other.

In my opinion, the best part about the musical is it's beginnings.

Jorge has documented each step in his artistic process of transforming straightforward lyrics into a beautiful story of bravery, friendship and perseverance.

This musical doesn’t only excel because of its beautiful lyrics and incredible composition, but because of the fandom (the community that is built around it, for those who don't know what that means). River-Herrans brought people into his work from the beginning, allowing his audience to see the extensive labor that was put into this project.  

Back in 2021, Jorge Rivera-Herrans began posting snippets of his unfinished musical on TikTok,

Which led to the work of art EPIC is now,

What I also love is the fact that all characters have an instrument associated with them

Jorge said that he uses different instruments unique to each character in Epic (piano for Athena, harp for Hermes, etc.). 

It's really great how hedid it, like you FEEL the different instruments coming together in harmony when there are several people... Like Storm, where the guitar and bass with the choirs (Odysseus and Eurylochus) and then the synths of Aeolus and his flute melody, it's SO GOOD.

I'm gonna talk about Odysseus's instruments because I find what Jorge did with it so cool.

Odysseus's instrument is à guitar and the so cool thing about it is that it changes depending of his emotions and goals.

By exemple in a song where he is going to be calm and emotional it is going to be a basic guitar (sorry if I don't know the name, I don't play instrument) but in another song where he is fighting it will be an electrical guitar.

This adds to the feeling sent by the song and what happens sometimes is we hear the theme of a character with their instrument and honesty that feelings when you hear the music and your like: I KNOW THAT THEME AND INSTRUMENT, I KNOW WHO'S COMMING

It's so cool.

We don't know if a Broadway version is to wait ( tho in June 2024, River-Herrans said that he would like to explore the project in a variety of mediums and would love to see EPIC as an animated film, on stage as a Broadway production or even a video game, so It could happen)

 But there are multiples animatics made by fans, and also animatics Jorge (creator of the musical and singer of the main character) comissioned. It is divided in sagas, each saga having 3/5 songs, and we have the full concept album.

But as you read before I loved epic because of it's beginning with the community

Although I wasn't here since the beginning [I discovered right when it was finished 😓] I still could see all the edit, tiktok, fanart, fanfiction, trend and other around) and to be in a living fandom, having updates of fanfics around the musical or the creator posting about it is i think the best thing ever.

And if you don't see this post too late you might also discover this experience.

This is a post made by Jorge on June 24, he later, in a tiktok post, (after having the fandom screaming and debating what would this mean) confessed his current work: 

Ilium, another musical this time inspired by the Iliad

As the time I'm writing this article Jorge has only post two draft of the first two songs

And if you'll care too join into the conception of what will probably another work of art than you're welcome. 

To conclude I really really really advise you to go listen to it or watch the animation on YouTube.

PLEASE LISTEN TO IT

And finally (as you were all waiting for

[absolutely not]):

My favourite song of each saga(because a top 5 of the whole musical is imposible for me)✨️✨️

Troy:  Full speed Ahead 

Love how we discover all the characters,  the music is cool and there is boat

Cyclop:Remember

One line: "I am the infamous ODYSSEUS "

Ocean: Storm

I just LOVE the instrumental

Circe: wouldn't you like

Because of a certain character 

Underwold: The underworld (had a hard time choosing between that and No longer you)

I cried. And cried again (that is basically what you do I that saga)

Thunder:i guess Scylla (favourite saga and goddamm it was hard choosing)

THE VOCALS>>>>

Wisdom: God games and love in paradise

(I cheating for this one because I love these two too much It's too hard to choose)

The vocals, instrumental and everything in general is fabulous

Vengeance: Charybdis

If you know who Charybdis is in Greek mythology, i love that song because the instrumental represents so well Charybdis 

Ithaca:Odysseus 

It's so cool, no comment

(And those who knows epic don't come to me because I didn't choose "WYFILWMA" [not saying the name cause I feel its kinda a spoil] i love it but Odysseus has my heart)

Anyway thank you for reading me and if you read that while I'm still in the High school (I'm in second right now)

COME TALK TO ME AFTER LISTENING TO EPIC

I need someone to talk to about it please.

(Random last fact for those who know hamilton:

Jorge and Lin met [my two world just collided that day and damm I was happy])
